There Is one feature about a houae that has a very strong and potent Influence on our daily lives, a factor that we seldom think of. It Is the wall decorations of the house. You may not realize it, but the colors and tints on your walls not only have an artistic effect, but they have something to do with your moods. A good many people have gone into the whys and wherefores of this fact, dug into mysterious scionces and told us all about it with big words that had to be looked up in the dictionary, but that is not necessary. There are very few thiugs that cannot be told simply and plainly without Impressing on the hearer or reader that the writer or speaker has been to college. We will spend weeks and weeks planning our house, lay awake nights over it and probably have harsh words with our wife over the number of closets and where the pantry shall be placed, for as a rule the wife only cares about the closet room and the pantry. We can have everything else as we want it except the parlor, din ing room, kitchen, hall, bedrooms and the bathroom. That Is all she cares to arrange except the size of the porch. Everything else we can have our way about. Then when It comes to decorating the walls wo defer to her and let her have her way, too. That Is kind. Maybe the parlor will r - mm bo green, the dining room red, the I Kitchen walls will bo apple green and | one beg room will be blue. Another boiiroom will be buff and a third one | will be pink. Or wo will leave it all to a paperhanger and let him choose combination. Then we are living In a paperlianger's house, not In one of our own choice. A wall should bo a background for the personality. If the color of the room does not hitch vitb your personality there will be discord. All things have color, and It i.s not an accident that their colors exist.

DECLINE IN GAME BREEDING Prohibition of Cock Fighting In Cal? Ifornla Causes Interest to Wana ?Beauty of Pile. Since the cocking pit has been rele gaieu to nnioo or rorgotton tilings by legislative means, the breeding of game fowl has deellued in California, though still occupying a prominent placo in the sporting fancy in Old . Pile uames, Moxlco, Arizona, tho southern states, and more especially In tho Philippine Islands, where cock fighting Is a national sport, says L,oa Angeles Times. With us a few Hlack Reds, both standard and bantam, are bred for the beauty of tho bird; tlioro aro also a few Pllo games to bo found here and there. In type and station, the Piles are the same as the Black Reds, anly that In color of plumage white leamering is suosuiutea lor uiacK | plumage. The practice of "Dubbing" all game breeds baa been so long a pronounced custom that unless tlio comb Is cut down close to the head, the bird does not look "gamy." Opinion, however, is modifying 011 that point, and gradually we see more of ho breed with combs in their natural condition. Since beauty of feather and ype, coupled with a graceful carriage ind alertness are its chief points of atiraction, it Is fair to assume, with ^ock fighting prohibited, that eventuilly the practice of dubbing will be omo obsolete. METHODS OF KEEPING EGGS Many Different Ways Tried in Germany Three Most Effective Are Given Herewith. In Germany twenty methods of prejerviug eggs have been tried. Of hese tests the three most effective ,vere coating the eggs with vaseline, ireserving them with lime water and (reserving them with water glass. As he object of tho preservation is tw ceep out genus, vaseline or some otli r tasteless grease, such as fresh buter, may be used. The process consists of greasing the eggs all over as soon as they are laid, then setting .hem on end in a clean Jar until want <1 for use. Kggs can bo kept in tills ,v?.y for three or four months. The process of keeping eggs in litno vater is as follows: Slack four pounds >f line, then add foui pounds of salt md eight gallons of water. Stir and I unvn tr\ ontlln M.wt ,1 r.? ct<r ncnin ! \ftor the mixture has settled the secmd time, draw otf tlio pure liquid, rake two ounces each of baking soda, ream of tartar, saltpeter and a littlo iluin. Puivorizo and mix and dissolve in two quarts of boiling water. \dd to this the lime water. Put the jggs in a stone jar, small end down, me layer on top of another, and pour m the solution. Sot the jar away in i cool place. While the method is ?atisfactory, it is not a3 good as water ?lass, as the eggs are liable to taste >1' tiiG limn. I !ii(lnuhtr>?l I v tlm preservative for keeping eggs is waer glass, In using water glass the difleult point is the tendency of water ?l;.ss to vary in quality. Water glass is also called soluable ?lass, or dissolved glass, liquid glass ind silicate of soda. Water glass is nade by nicllinc together otire nnnit/. ind a caustic alkali, soda or potash. It is imported here in tin cans, and i? i thick or Jelly-like liquid. At several .'Xperiment stations there have been 1 some very exhaustive experiments with this dissolved glass in preserving ggs. The reports are without exoeption in favor of it. No other preserver . s reported as being equal to this one. j The directions for ulo are: Use pure water which has been thoroughly i boiled and cooled. To eac h nine I luarts of this water add one quart of j water glass, i'aek the eggs In the : |ar and pour the solution over tho j <?ggs. The solution may bo prepared. ! placed in tho Jar and fresh eggs added from time to time until the Jar Is : tilled, but care must be used to keep ; fully two inches of water glass solu- I Lion over the eggs. Keep the eggs ! In a cool place, and the jar covered to prevent evaporation. A eool cellar | Is a good place in which to keep tho Jggs.

Associations for tho Prevention of Tuberculosis have been formed in Cuba, Porto Rico and Trinidad. In Cuba there are over 40,000 deaths from tuourcuioHis every year, ana the death rate from thla disease is nearly three tiinos as high in the United States. In Porto Rico there are over 6,000 deatha every year out of 1,000,000 inhabitants. In Trinidad, the death rate trom tuberculosis In Port-au-Spaln, the only place whore figures are available, was 4.75 in 1909, nearly three tlmoa the rate in New York city. Conditions in the other islands of the West Indies, where no active campaign against tuberculosis has been under taken is oven worse. The chief reason for this high mortality is found in the unsanitary, dark, and poorly ventilated houses of the natives of tho Islands. Not on Your Life. An Irishman obtained a position In a skyscraper that was being built. Ho had to carry mortar up to the top door. One day ho went up and couldn't find his way down.

"Faith, and I won't." said Pat, "for I came up hea/1 first." Even the Children. Ex-Governor Pennypacker, condemning in his witty way the American divorce evil, toK? at a Philadelphia luncheon an appropriate story. "Even our children," he said, "are becoming infected. A Kensington schoolteacher, examining a little girl In grammar, said: " 'What is the future of love?' " 'A divorce,' tho child answered promptly." Man's Many Attributes. What a chimera, then, is man!
